VINYL Visual: EXCELLENT++
Apart from some harmless wispy brush marks from the inner both surfaces are clean with a deep glossy sheen
VINYL Audio: EXCELLENT++
Wonderful sound - strong, rich and vibrant and my play-check at loud volume found little to fault - just a couple of soft background ticks (incredibly minor and really barely worth a mention) - plays beautifully - very clean on the quieter sections - great copy
SLEEVE: VERY GOOD
General storage wear - rub to the spine/edges - and a name written small on the inside - but good and solid with no structural damage
INNER SLEEVE: EXCELLENT++
Clean, white and unmarked - no seam splits
